  • Re: Kalle Hvidt Nielsen is out. Replacing him as President and CEO is Tue Mantoni

    http://www.bang-olufsen.com/beonews/New_CEO.wmv I don’t normally comment on these issues but looking at Kalle’s eyes, he is not a happy bunny. I also suspect…and it is easy to doomsay, but this new CEO does not look like good news to me. Triumph Motorcycles?? Really. The UK’s long-running answer to “plod and chrome”

    Beofork. Probably be slated as too expensive, doesnt make the right sound when falling on the floor, poor value for money by the Press. Plus the exclusion of an iPod socket and HMDI would be pure criminal. 10

  • Re: Where is BeoSound8 made?

    [quote user="Paul Winn"] It's like spending £900 on an Armani suit to then find out it has been made in the same factory as a £50 Top Man suit. It's like saving to buy an Omega watch and then finding it's assembled by Timex for £50! [/quote] Spend a bit of time in Vietnam and you will see countless rolls of Armani

  • Re: Where is BeoSound8 made?

    Lights blue touch paper……… I wonder what the %margin per unit is on an iPod/iPhone/iPad that is made in China is? After all it’s a premium American Company utilising cheap far-Eastern labour. I would however like to bet it is significantly more than the %margin on the BeoSound 8 made in the same place. I am personally of the

    I have written a process down here in this forum a long time ago. Involves a bit of messing around but get results. The key - and I assume you are running everything as a WMA file is breifly as follows:- 1. Load up Windows Media Player (10 or 11 is probably idea) 2. Edit all the tags as you see fit. There are a number of fields which are usually redundant

  • Re: BeoLink PC2 Config

    Hi Stefan, Thanks for the effort. I have tried this previously and it didnt work. However, I just found an old email from a Dealer query on this from 2006. Apparently the answer V.Opt 6 and A.Opt 2 which I will try to verify tomorrow. The PC2 will work in a separate system to the BV7/BS5 combo so hence dusting-off the old gear. Cheers. 10
